The first break in the G.. A. r. because
of its offensive partisanship has occurred
in Madison post. Hugh Lewis, the one
armed soldier who created a ripple of ex-
| element couple of years ago because
of his structures on the democratic party,
has asked for, and received an honorable
discharge from the Grand Army. The
doggerel which was issued from the ma
| General Bragg, and the refusal of the
parties to make any explanation or apol-
ogy, induced Lewis to take this step.
1t seems that Gray, "Commander-in-
chief Fairchild's "adjutant," is the man
who had the doggerel printed and dis
, ributed among the "old boys" Lewis
amanded an investigation. A committee
was appointed for that purpose. When
the report was made the local commander
said the thing had gone far enough and
arbitrarily sat down on the report. Lewis
then announced that he wanted to have
nothing more to do with the order. Bragg
had been tried and true soldier, was
member of the G. A. r. in good standing
| and entitled to defense rather than at
tacks from those who were good soldiers.
Fairchild has succeeded in seriously
| crippling the order by making it an anti
democratic organization. There are many
| who used it to further their own political
aspirations, but things of that kind are
unavoidable in most societies. It viii
| now be in order to denounce Lewis as
rebel. Bragg has been thus classed.

ToMAHAwK is the name of the place

TOMAHAwK is the name of the place
having the latest boom. Years "agone"
when Manitowoc had but one house and
a boarding shanty, lots were laid out
here and lines were shown by blazed trees
Corner lots in this wilderness then sold
for the fabulous sum of $1,000. Some
such boom Tomahawk has now. Toma-
hawk is only site, a cleared patch in the
wilderness forth of Merrill. But it is
plated and the sales of lots are enormous,
corner lots bringing $500 each. There is
not even a wagon road leading to the
place, but land spectators have shown
satisfactorily that it has future; it GER
tainly has present and rushing one.

THERE is too much concern manifested
lest Catholics attend Dr. McGlynn's lee
lures. Can it be possible that DR.. Nc
Glynn's fallacies are so dangerous that
the clergy find it incumbent upon them
to warn their Pensioners against a man
whose life has been spent in works of
charity? The wild country dance, the
saloon, the skating rink, and a thousand
other things are far more dangerous than
McGlynn, even putting the estimate of
his enemies upon him. Will those who
are denouncing him tolerate the bestial
indulgence which characterizes the Sun
day gathering at the country saloon and
hold up their hands in pious horror if a
Catholic should attend a lecture by the
gifted and prosecuted priest? The thun-
derbolts of papal wrath are hurled at a
man who erPs on purely politico-econo-
mic s-rhiect, but are still in the presence
of those enc,oc,. % In a trade which robs
manhood of its strength AM. LIS virtue
This swallowing a camel and stra1nl..-
at gnat gives bad impression. When
people see so many reprehensible things
allowed to pass without receiving their
nice comment" while cautions are given
the faithful not to scandalize themselves
by having lecture given by scholarly
man whose life has been as pure as ex-
allied human nature can make it, they be-
gin to believe that authority NAV be
abused and that moral teachers are prone
to error. The man who sets himself ND
as too good to hear McGlynn is of the
Pharisee cast. And the ecclesiastic who
warns people not to give the gifted man
hearing is setting up most ridiculous
standard of morality.

PRESIDENT BAsCoM's letter to T

PRESIDENT BAsCoM's letter to The
Prohibitionist is a most severe arraign-

University. 1t won't do to set the whole

They give more attention to political
scheming in connection with the Univer-
sity than they do to the interests of the

JUDGES outweigh all considerations of

their assistance. The position of regent

THE battle flag incident shows how the
two sections have changed. In the south
the matter was treated with dignified
control, while the north seethed and eff
fervesced like water charged with gas.
The hysterical style of literature has quit
the south and now finds place in the
newspaper columns of the professionally
patriotic editors of the north The north
ern editorials on the subject were the
most extravaganza heap of bombast ever
called out by an exciting event and are
strikingly like the southern extravagan-
zas before the wah." This fustian and
bombast are quite laughable, and really
pitiable.

THE proposition has been made that
the republicans nominate Fairchild as
representative of the idea that the war is
still in progress and that the old soldiers
are anxious to save the country some
more. and that the democrats nominate
Cleveland on platform that the war is

of far more Importance than old soldier

and let the people settle the matter ol.t"e

WHEwl if the Iowa posts were at Get

rebel general who led the most daring
charge which history records, was cheer

Cheek would be running about for rebel

SOME time ago when Russia began the
work of driving Germans out of her do
minions and no protest was made by Bis
marck, the opinion was generally enter
tanned that the action of the Russian
government was in accordance with a
secret arrangement between the Russian
and German governments. Bismarck has
never favored German emigration and has
taken steps to prevent it.
But it would seem that Russia is actu-
ated by hostility toward Germany. The
German press protests against the cruelty
of Russia toward German residents, but
to no purpose. Thus Germany is harass-
ed on the east by Russia, on the west by
France and is feared by all Europe, so
that she has sympathy from none.

ELECTIONS for vacancies in England
are almost invariably favorable to the
liberals. This is proving somewhat dis
couraglng to the tories who feel they
must have the support of the country
for their coercion bill. There are MANY
tory democrats who are half inclined to
secede FROM the government and join the
liberals. The tory defeats at the polls
will tend to strengthen that purpose but

THE difference III style of rowing be-
tween Yale and Harvard is pretty well
exemplified in the results of the contests.
Yale has long, sweeping stroke and a
quick recovery. Harvard has short
nervous stroke and slow recovery. In
short distance races Harvard wins. In
long pulls it has no show against Yale.
The Yale stroke is the winning one in

as follows:
We save the union and it is ours by
right of salvage We are patriotic. All
others know not what patriotism is.
Down with Cleveland and his rebel adj
ministration.
We are the saviors of the union. We
are the quintessence of patriotism.
General Bragg is a rebel.
We saved the government. If it was
not for us there would be no United

A democratic administration is rebel
one.

the Pennsylvania troops who met and
repulsed the charge of the confederate
brigade on July Bird, the anniversary of
the saGguinary contest, was an event
which stirred the magnanimity of the
survivors and called forth the expression
of patriotic sentiments to which every
lover of his country must subscribe. How
pitiful appear the partisan utterances of
the professional soldiers when an account
of the meeting of these men is read!-
There was no empty bCasting, no vdunt-
were prepared to do again. The place
where they met spoke their valor and at
tested their patriotism, and there was no
need of declamatOry protestations. And
how the demagogues whose capital is the
perpetuation of sectional strife would
vince if they had a spark Of manly spirit,
at the following words of the rebel Col
onel Aylett in lis address at this meeting:
Il utter it as sentiment that should
come yelling up from every bosom of
Virginia and the South that the man who
would rel1indle again that feeling which
filled our land with death and tears and
grief and mourning, with graves and suf
fering, is not only unworthy of the high
title of American citizen, but even that
of human being, and should find no home
or friend on earth or in heaven. y Z
There is not true man at the South, but
who feels as if he would like to stand at
the tombs of Lincoln and Grant, to plant
flower there and to water it with hu-
man tear. In the presence of a feeling
like this, too sacred and deep for utter
ance what matters it who shall keep the
battle-hags? They passed into your hands
In brave and manly combat, untouched
by dishonor, after baptism in blood that
made the gray jacket a mantle of glory,
and we are as willing your people should
keep them as ours. They are in the hands
of our government and brethren, to whom
| our honor should be as dear as their own.
Never again will our battle-hags wave in
strife. They have gone down forever, but
they went down in glory and in honor.
They are dead, and we love and follow
alone now the living flag which floats
from Key West to Behring straits-from
Bunker Hill to San Francisco"
